Overview This check monitors Hyper-V through the Datadog Agent.
Setup Installation The Hyper-V check is included in the Datadog Agent package. No additional installation is needed on your server.
Configuration Edit the hyperv.d/conf.yaml file, in the conf.d/ folder at the root of your Agent’s configuration directory to collect your Hyper-V performance data. See the sample hyperv.d/conf.yaml for all available configuration options.
Restart the Agent .
Note : Versions 1.5.0 or later of this check use a new implementation for metric collection, which requires Python 3. For hosts that are unable to use Python 3, or if you would like to use a legacy version of this check, refer to the following config .
Validation Run the Agent’s status subcommand and look for hyperv under the Checks section.
Data Collected Metrics hyperv.dynamic_memory_balancer.available_memory The amount of memory left on the node.Shown as byte hyperv.dynamic_memory_balancer.average_pressure This counter represents the average pressure in the VM.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_logical_processor.context_switches_per_sec The combined rate at which all processors on the computer are switched from one thread to another.Shown as operation hyperv.hypervisor_logical_processor.guest_run_time The percentage of time spent by the processor in guest code.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_logical_processor.hypervisor_run_time The percentage of time spent by the processor in hypervisor code.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_logical_processor.idle_time The percentage of time spent by the processor in an idle state.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_logical_processor.total_run_time The percentage of time spent by the processor in guest and hypervisor code.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_root_virtual_processor.guest_run_time The percentage of time spent by the virtual processor in guest code.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_root_virtual_processor.hypervisor_run_time The percentage of time spent by the virtual processor in hypervisor code.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_root_virtual_processor.total_run_time The percentage of time spent by the virtual processor in guest and hypervisor code.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_virtual_processor.guest_run_time The percentage of time spent by the virtual processor in guest code.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_virtual_processor.hypervisor_run_time The percentage of time spent by the virtual processor in hypervisor code.Shown as percent hyperv.hypervisor_virtual_processor.total_run_time The percentage of time spent by the virtual processor in guest and hypervisor code.Shown as percent hyperv.virtual_network_adapter.bytes_per_sec The rate at which bytes are sent and received over each network adapter.Shown as byte hyperv.vm_vid_partition.physical_pages_allocated The number of physical pages allocated.Shown as block hyperv.vm_vid_partition.remote_physical_pages The number of physical pages not allocated from the preferred NUMA node.Shown as block
